Description: Effective public health communication requires more than simply sharing accurate information. Public health professionals must understand their audiences, recognize what influences behavior, and determine how communication can help people make informed decisions and take action. This presentation introduces the fundamentals of public health communication and the role communication can play in supporting individual and community-level change.
Participants will explore a practical approach to communication planning, from analyzing a public health problem and identifying priority audiences to determining communication objectives and selecting strategies designed to engage, inform, or persuade. The presentation also examines how behavioral models and audience characteristics can help communicators better understand what may encourage or prevent change.
The session will also address developing and framing messages, selecting appropriate communication channels, identifying partners, and evaluating whether communication efforts are reaching their intended audiences and achieving their objectives. Participants will leave with a framework they can apply when planning strategic, audience-centered public health communication.
